Torrent Madness
Aug. 22nd, 2006 04:02 pmLast night I went a bit crazy (its a subtle thing, the differences between a bit crazy, kind-of crazy and somewhat crazy) and queued up a hundred or so movies and documentaries to download from various torrent sources. I had been looking for just one obscure movie to assauge my boredom and kept finding other stuff that I had never seen so I kept adding them to the queue.
One of these obscure movies was StarCrash, which has got to be the worst bit of SF dreck I have actually managed to sit through and watch. (But then again, no one has ever inflicted Plan-9 on me, so what do I know?) Its almost downloaded now. I think I will need a victim to force to watch it with me, or else I may not survive watching it again.

2) Reading the User's Guide if you get stuck and then
3) Going to a large torrent site like Mininova, and downloading a .torrent file or two with your web browser. Depending on your setup, this should wake up Azureus and it will use the info in the .torrent files to find and download your selections.

Like Rockstar Supernova is not on until 10 tonight and I am so not going to make it.
